More on Plamegate courtesy of Gene Lyons

snip

As in a proper investigation, persons making multiple appearances before Fitzgerald’s Washington grand jury, those such as Karl Rove, Cheney chief of staff Scooter Libby and self-dramatizing New York Times reporter Judith Miller, have no clear idea how other witnesses have testified or what documents prosecutors have seen; hence, they’re well-advised to come clean.

1. Txs. for sharing. Two things: MSM is going to seriously hurt for their

tacit complicity in the scandal/for not doing its job we will never trust MSM again like we use to.

Second, Fitzgerald has earned (regardless of outcome) a very unique place in history, which he deserves. I have not heard or witness this kind of professional commitment from any one in recent times...

"The closest thing in Washington to an intellectually honest neo-con , Kristol also lamented “the criminalization of politics .” Well , cry me a river . Where were Kristol and his magazine during the late Clinton scandals ? "
